Description Name: Zuixote
Nicknames: Eldritch squire, Zui, Kid Tar, Prisoner 70X6, The Incursor
Age: 11
Species: mutant nibiran  
Height: 4’8 (out of suit) 5’0 (in suit)
Weight: 74 lbs (out of suit) 180 lbs (in suit)

Personality: spunky and cordial, Zuixote is always eager to make himself known and greet those he comes across. Idolizing the concepts of friendship, chivalry, and the innate goodness of others. Unfortunately these notions can go on to a point of delusion where he trivializes mal intent and danger as a whole. Being able to be persistently kind and apologetic at his own physical and emotional expense, and while his temper has limits, it's rarely difficult to assuage Zuixote.

What shows the most from Zuixote is an adventurous spirit and child's wonder to even rather mundane occurrences. Sporting an arguably unhealthy passion for heroics, he often shirks his sense of fear away for the potential to help a cause he considers just, and sticks with it even when he finds the limits of his bravery for fear of ridicule. Much less shakable is an optimistic perspective and playful attitude on Zuixote’s part.  

Whether it is more a condition of his biology or the circumstances of his upbringing, Zuixotes biggest vice is his inability to empathize with the distress of others beyond the surface level, and a lack of self awareness of how dangerous he can be. Failing to register severe injuries, grief, or even understand when a living thing is dead. Frequent showings of such trauma often motivate a cold determined motive to ‘fix’ the problem by acting less ominous instincts. Potentially compromising a person’s very agency if they aren’t cooperative.

Abilities and weaknesses

-Equipment
*Zuixote’s armor AKA, The prison Body, is a highly dense mechanical exo-suit running on self-sustaining fusion energy. Fitted with two robotic limbs controlled through a mental connection to its wearer (wears actual arms are crossed around chest like a straight jacket)
*The armor Incredibly durable casing, being able to withstand gunfire, vehicular assault, radiation, telepathic invasion, and regulates temperature, and even operate in zero oxygen environments.
*The mobility and dexterity of the suit is laughably sub par. Paired with a very poor field of vision offered by the visor, these shortcomings promote chronic clumsiness and a difficulty discerning objects in several directions not directly ahead of the wearer. With only one exit point at the back and a chest flap just large enough for one of his actual arms to reach out of at a time
*Suit can connect to several wireless networks like wifi, phone lines, and even alien hive minds.
*The casings metal has no defense against corrosive substances and can be melted away with a strong enough acid. The articulated joints are also more vulnerable to damage.

-Incur toxin
*Zuixotes most versatile yet least predictable power derives from the semi supernatural substance his skin constantly secretes.
*Any and all direct skin contact with zuixote Will cause a viscous purple covering to form upon where the infected made contact with a greater range of spread depending on how long a life form was touched. enough. Should an entire limb or body part be coated (arm, leg, etc.) *Zuixote will have a telepathic control over the infected body part, should the whole body be covered the infected will mutate into a monstrous thrall fully under zuixotes command.
How the goo mutates a victim is not under Zuixotes control. Can be influenced by the infecteds DNA, health condition, personality, or connection with magic. Though mostly it often sprouts random traits like tails, tentacles, and extra limbs.
*A single touch for a few moments cannot cause a full transformation, and would require prolonged exposure over half a minute, or a full body embrace (a hug or body slam) to complete the conversion
*Beings with a strong enough will power, or supernatural resistances may be able to negate the effects of the toxin, or at least resist being mind controlled.
*The more life forms that are infected at once, the less direct control Zuixote has over them and his own rational thoughts. Both acting more on what zuixotes general immediate impulses.
*An infected being not being given orders will simply follow Zuixote and defend him from any threats with fierce aggression both genuine and perceived.
*Inorganic life forms such as robots, ghosts, and energy laden intelligences are completely immune to the toxins effects.
*Toxin can potentially bleed through cloth but thick enough apparel can defend against Zuixotes touch.
*On inorganic material, the gelatinous material can act as a very strong adhesive, for repairs, makeshift crafts, and even trapping others.
*Should they not be coated with more toxin, its effects will erode and the infected will be returned to normal in around an hour's time. The recovery process potentially being sped up should the dried warp layers be pried off the body, though the process is painful
*Zuixote can see and hear through his infected thrall.
Secretion of these toxins are involuntary for zuixote, and he must actively be out of his armor not to accidentally infect others.

-General Anatomy & intellect.
*Zuixote’s body is built for amphibious locomotion, being spry and nimble, if not a bit jumpy both out of and underwater.
*He’s not particularly stronger than any human child his size and age, with no formal combat training and a low pain tolerance. Making him a poor hand to hand combatant against foes who can work around his toxins.
*Bruises and gets cut easily, but heals relatively quickly
*Can cause his skin to become translucent and reveal organs as an intimidation tactic.
*Incredibly high immune system allow him to handle most other toxins  with ease, but medicine sedatives and painkillers have no effect
*Zuixote is very well read for his age, with a higher than average vocabulary and general knowledge of Literary tropes one might expect at middle school level.
*Is prone to going on mental tangents and daydreaming, causing him to be easy to distract or mislead.
*Has an acute fear of heights, sharp objects and fire, that can be borderline paralyzing when out of his armor
*Senses allow him a limited degree of night vision, and an ability to detect the presence of vague supernatural phenomeon to a very limited extent.
*Niburan mindset allows him a mental tolerance that could be potentially mind breaking for other mortals, such as the fourth wall and the true nature of cosmic horrors. Making his mind a hazardous place for incautious telepaths.

History
No civilization is short of its prophesied apocalypses, And Zuixote embodies most terrible of these end times for the distant 9th planet of Sol and its people.
Two generations before his own the inhabitants of Nibiru meddled with a nigh imperishable native gestalt species of cell colonies known as the Incur. Once filling the skies with violet fluttering clouds that would filter and sift the pollutants in the air, the population was harvested at unsustainable rates for wonderous medicines, fuel, and even the recipes for occult divinations. Even when no wild specimens remained the incur would be relentlessly genetically modified by the highest powers to monopolize further on their miracle drug across the universe.

Whether a product of an experiment gone awry, a birth defect caused by a purely produced medicinal, or intelligent design of the Incurs vengeful retaliation against its harvesters is unclear. But it was the day the Incur was truly no more, and all its products became dispoiled, that Zuixote’s Onslaught began. A wandering, toddler bearing a sickly appearance amidst the studded metropolis dotting the surface. The uncaring would leave him to his fate had they seen him, but the compassionate that came to help seldom came back. Citizens, search parties, city crafers continually disappearing.

In time this lone Tot would not simply be seen as a vagrant nuisance, but some ominous local legend, a dark omen, one that the higher escalion of the government refused to acknowledge. In time this accumulating hysteria would reach a boiling point, a fearful Gardener smacking the boy out of his Floral decorations leading to mass retaliation, those that had been missing would return to the open as Twisted aberrations akin to the star folks' depictions of hell spawn! Defending the Feared child tirelessly by essentially razing the city that now threatened him.

For all its people’s  advancements the Nibiruans were helpless in their division and rash reactions against this sudden threat. Confirmation that the monstrosities had some genetic link to the now extinct Incur by scientists would inspire natives to name this child that caused them such woe The Incursor as they were either forced from their capital or forced to join his ranks. Lacking both the skill to find This incursor, and the heart to fight creatures that had once been friend and family, Denizens of the 9th planet called upon their robotic alien allies in the tezta the hope of tracking this revenant child for a cure before the world was fully taken.

Careful and cunning in their exploration of the mutants' domain, the teztan’s efforts would be fruitful Locating the alpha mutant within an abandoned playground. when they anticipated a lengthy battle, they were instead greeted with curious chirps and affectionate pats to their mechanical knees. The Incursor was unmistakably not hostile despite its blatantly hazardous effects on organics. Upon his capture, The revelation of the mutant Niburians' sentience and lack of awareness in its abilities would prove irrelevant to the natives whom were eager to snuff out what was seen as a mythical threat to their existence. Yet their machine conscripts proved too morally stubborn in their independent programming to allow this. Taking The Incursor off world to find more suitable conditions to live as non lethal methods of research were made upon the boy.

raised within the isolation of space station asylums for the following years, The supposed doom bringer would be tentatively cared for and educated through non biased caregivers under several walks of life. Nurturing the being they would decree as Zuixote to have moral principle, courtesy, and amiability as to counteract his horrendous reputation across charted space that has festered since his departure.

The tutelage of Zuixote’s machine Guardians would be tested in due time. As he Was without the contextual memories of his early life, Zuixotes yearning for adventure and even heroics would fuel a desire to escape his incarceration when the opportunity came. Said opportunity came in the form of a mysterious group of repentant cosmic horrors and alien fiends known as The Eldritch Knights, whom by apparent fate defending a space colony zuixote happened to be moved upon A skirmish against a sub dimensional predator. Zuixote saw himself being kindred spirits amongst these star warriors; and while they were reluctant to risk a childs safety for their own quests they recognized that he would need to learn to hone his powers on field lest they dominate him as it did on nibiru. Allowing Zuixote to follow their lovecraftian crusade for justice as non combatant apprentice, at least in theory…

Furthermore appreciating Wyataks perceptive nature, Abundance in stories of his homeworld, and fearsome drive to defend others. That being said Zuixote is more than willing to ignore or contradict Wyatak’s  orders or advice should it stifle his resurfacing adventurous nature or practical awareness of the situation.
